There have been numerous rumors surrounding the Google Pixel 2, the follow-up to last year's Pixel phone.

Google has been reluctant to reveal too much information about this forthcoming smartphone release, but YouTube channel Concept Creator has recently produced a Google Pixel 2 XL concept to whet the appetite. This channel has already created renders of other devices, with its latest effort related to the Google smartphone building on collected rumors.

Firstly, it is notable that this Google Pixel 2 XL concept features a large display, although not quite the wraparound screen that may have been anticipated. This technology has proven to be hugely popular in 2017, with Samsung introducing it in the Galaxy S8 generation, and OnePlus following suit with the OnePlus 5.

However, there is a definite design similarity between this Google Pixel 2 XL concept and the LG G6 release. This would suggest that Google will at least pay some heed to market trends when designing and developing its next flagship handset. This would make sense considering that LG is strongly expected to be involved in the manufacturing of this device.

Now, it seems the word is that Google will be sticking with just the Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2, and while many expected HTC to manufacture both, recent rumours have it that LG will actually be manufacturing the XL 2.

But we are impressed with the YouTube channel's attempt to render what the Pixel XL 2 could look like, taking cues from recent leaks to create the design in the video.
